About this forum

Luxury SUV Forum opened in November 2025 for people who own, service or are shopping a full size luxury SUV and are tired of brand forums that pretend the other brands do not exist.

Full size luxury here means the Cadillac Escalade, the Lincoln Navigator and Aviator, the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport, the Mercedes GLS and G-Wagen, the BMW X7, the Lexus LX and GX, the Audi Q7 and Q8, the Genesis GV80, and the Jeep Grand Wagoneer. A paid off work truck and a 110,000 dollar G-Wagen get the same honest answers here.

It is run by Lorraine K., who posts as mod_lorraine_k. Lorraine spent eleven years as a finance manager at a domestic dealer outside Chicago, which is to say she watched a lot of good people sign for a luxury SUV they did not understand, and she started this board to put the information those buyers needed in one room. She drives a 2018 Navigator Black Label with 96,000 miles on it and reads the contact mailbox herself, slowly during the holidays.

What it costs to run

The server is twelve dollars a month and the domain was fourteen for the year. Lorraine pays both. There is no advertising on any page, no affiliate code in any link, and nobody has paid for a thread or a spot in one. If that ever changes it will be written here before it changes anywhere else.

House rules

• Model, year, trim and engine in your first line. A 2019 Escalade and a 2023 Escalade are different trucks and the answer changes.
• Buying posts carry the real numbers, the price and the mileage and the year you bought. A buying report without a price helps nobody.
• No selling in threads. There is no classifieds board on purpose. Linking a public listing to make a point about price is fine.
• If you work for a dealer, a lender, an auction house or a transport company, say so in the posts where it matters.
• Keep the depreciation sermons in the lounge. A person with a real air suspension question does not need to be told he should have bought a 4Runner.
• Mods move posts to the right board and leave a note where the post used to be. Threads get locked rarely, with a reason written in them.
• Accounts are by email request until the spam settles down.

What this is not

Not a dealer, not a broker, not a factory service manual. When somebody here gives you a torque spec or a fluid interval, check it against the book for your own truck before you trust it.
